I had an honor to see "Jumping" live on a big screen at the Zagreb Animation Film Festival back in the 80's. It still lingers in my memory as near perfect rhythmic 7-minute sequence with memorable simplicity and purity of animation. The story, for me at least, translates into a simple Zen reduction: You've got to let it go! Abandon your fears and go for a larger (and larger and larger) view of things! Perhaps the fear shall abate so much that you'd become one with the spirit of a bouncing ball! Thus, the attribute I'd use with Osamu's gem is: JOYOUS!
